The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Xavier Bachelot <address@concealed>]

Hi,

I've recently migrated an hand-installed sympa 6.1.24 over Debian 7 to a 
packaged sympa 6.1.70 over Debian 12.
Lot of stuff needed to be moved around in the filesystem, but once 
everything was in place, the upgrade process went quite smoothly.

For the distribution, Debian or RHEL and clones are good choices, but 
not the only ones. Go with the distribution you are the most confortable 
with.
Debian usually doesn't have the latest version, which is currently 
6.2.78. Debian 13 ships sympa 6.2.76. Racke is taking care of the Debian 
package.
On the RHEL side, sympa package is available in EPEL, and I keep it 
updated to the latest version.

Regards,
Xavier
